Arium?!!? I wonder if it is the same Arium that made ICE's
and development stations in the early-to-mid 80's.
JUst curious: That wouldn't be a 680x0 machine, would it?
I remember an OS that ran on 680x0 platforms that was
marketed at about that time called 'Regulus'.

New subject: Arium Echo (was Re: Free: Apollo DOMAIN/OS Software ...)
Wow, I'm surprised anybody knows about that box. It was dual-68K (one was
a dedicated I/O processor), and ran Regulus, a real-time Unix clone made
by a company called Alcyon in San Diego. I think we got it out the door in
1985. I wrote a good chunk of the software for it.
We thought it would be cool to have a portable Unix cross-development
system. Regulus was nice -- way ahead of it's time, I guess; Linux is
just starting to target real-time.
Arium is still around, specializing in ICE support for Intel processors:
